Procedure Templates (PDM)

PowerDesigner procedure templates allow you to create procedures in a modular reusable fashion.

PowerDesigner provides certain basic procedure templates, and you can also create your own.

You can create procedure templates in your DBMS definition file (see Viewing and Editing the DBMS Definition File) or in your model.

• Creating a Procedure Template
  You can create a new procedure template in your DBMS definition file or as part of your model. You can begin by copying an existing template or write one from scratch.
• PowerDesigner Pre-defined Procedure Templates
  The pre-defined DBMS templates provided with PowerDesigner generate SQL insert, delete, update, and select statement procedures.
• Modifying a Procedure Template
  You can modify both your templates and those that are provided with PowerDesigner.
• Procedure Template Properties
  To view or edit a procedure template's properties, double-click its Browser or list entry. The property sheet tabs and fields listed here are those available by default, before any customization of the interface by you or an administrator.
